“The recent interest rate cut came as no shock to many investors as it had been priced in to the markets for a little while.

With rates at historical low levels savers are getting a bad end of the deal as things stand.

This makes it an ideal time to invest for the future rather than save. Interest rates are as low as 0.5% on savings accounts where as you can earn double digit returns many of which are assured for up to five years or more.”
